In the Land of Sky Blue Water...or Blue-Eyed Water....

 We have a friend, Kevin, who sells home water filtration systems.  Consumers may soon have another reason to buy one.  Minnesota just became the second state to have fire-free "Green Cremations." Where it normally takes about 25 years for a body to decompose, it can now be done in a three hour water and chemical spa treatment.  When this final bath is over (and I personally hope it's a nice warm one), then the 'liquids,' which contain 'broken down organic matter' are all drained into the municipal water treatment facilities and then into...the water supply.  The bones are left, and you can see a previous blog of mine to see how those are reduced for consumer packaging.

So, Kevin, here is your new marketing spiel:  "Our filters take out contaminants including chlorine, rust, bacteria, parasites, and, what's more,  you never, ever have to worry about Great Uncle Herbert's remains clouding up your drinking water. Our filtered water will have no unpleasant odors--no chlorine, bromine, sulfur; no Grampa Ken who never, ever took a bath; no Gramma Carlita who wore perfume like the force field of the Starship Enterprise. You can rest in peace knowing that you will only taste clear, clean water--no rancid  feet, sweaty arm pits; no cousin Kermit's flatulence that, while he was alive, had busted a hole through the ozone layer."

Kevin, I realize I could get the big bucks for these marketing tips, but they are yours for FREE!  People will appreciate their filtered water even more as the demographics of H2O begin changing...
